Running Head: WEEK 4 QUALITATIVE RESEARCH 1 Week 4 Qualitative Research Tony Pinedo Advanced Qualitative Reasoning and Analysis Step 1 2 WEEK 4 QUALITATIVE RESEARCH Introduction The success of research depends on the researchers' ability to come up with the appropriate research questions to address the identified issue. According to Kutney-Lee, Stimpfel, Sloane, Cimiotti, Quinn, & Aiken, (2015), the health care sector requires highly qualified health practitioners with the competence to identify the issues bothering the community health. The health care sector is faced with the shortage of health practitioners especially the nurses. Sare & Ogilvie (2010), posit that the number of patients is ever increasing in thus outmatching the number of nurses. However, it's essential to find the right approaches which can be applied to address the shortage of nurse practitioners and improve the workability of the available nurses. The qualitative methods that can be involved in this research include phenomenology and grounded theory. Research Questions The research questions that can apply in this research are as follows. 1. What are the strategies that can be applied to improve nurses’ performance despite an increase in the number of patients? 2. In which ways the health care department can minimize the shortage of nurses and improve their performance despite an increase in the number of patients? A Case Why Each Selected Approach Would Work The grounded theory is used to discover emerging patterns in data. Grounded method guides a researcher on matters related to data collection and details for data analysis (Laureate Education, 2016). The grounded way helps a researcher to conceptualize on the patterns surrounding the healthcare sector. It plays a significant role in comparing the identified phenomenon and other social structures. The approach involves using the inductive method to generate the substantive code in the data and generate more questions which help the research to define where he or she will go next. Therefore, the approach will help in identifying the causes of the nurse shortage in the health care shortage. Further, it will assist in determining the objectives of 3 WEEK 4 QUALITATIVE RESEARCH the decline in the nurses' performance and how the quality can be improved. The ground theory seeks to give a new explanation of the phenomenon at hand. The second approach that can be used in this research is phenomenology. Phenomenology helps the researcher to analyze of exploring the lived experience. Based on the expressed experience, the researcher can develop questions to guide him or her to come up with the right explanation. In this, scenario, it can be used to explain the exact causes of the patient's dissatisfaction after being attended by the nurse. The phenomenology focuses more on invariant structures of experiences. In this position, a researcher suspends the preconceptions and understands the phenomenon on the angle of the participants. According to Singh, (2009), the suspension of the preconceived information is known as bracketing. The Approach That Fits the Highlighted Research Problem The approach that fits the highlighted research problem is phenomenology approach. Phenomenology approach focuses on understanding the patients' experience caused by the shortage of nurses. Ideally, a shortage of nurses has various implications for healthcare service delivery. For instance, some patients can be misdiagnosed, or not treated properly. On the other hand, the approach will help in identifying the experiences of nurses with an increasing number of patients. Also, through this approach, I will be able to understand what can be done to improve nurses’ performance and quality healthcare services to the patients. The question that fits this approach is as follows. Rephrased Research Question This study will use qualitative methods where the researcher will present specific research question to the participants to help in data collection. The research question that the research will use is; • Do you believe that there are ways that can be implemented to reduce the negative issue of nurse shortage in the healthcare departments? How the Phenomenology Will Be Helpful on The Project in The Future 4 WEEK 4 QUALITATIVE RESEARCH The use of quality data collection approaches will help the researcher to collect valid data that will enable them to conclude about the challenges facing the healthcare organizations as a result of having nurse shortages. The approach will help in describing the need for having more qualified healthcare personnel in the healthcare organization. The data will be collected primarily through interviews, questionnaires, observation or using the secondary materials. Secondly, data analysis will be applied to determine the exact causes of the nurses' shortage and the impacts of the deficit on service delivery. Lastly, the researcher will analyze the collected data to come up with strategies that may solve this challenge. The Best Theoretical Framework That Can Be Applied in Research Two factors motivational theory is the best theoretical framework that can be used in research. According to Singh (2009), two factors theory focus on the factors that improve the employee's job satisfaction. The method describes two elements that have an impact on the employee's performance. Those factors include satisfaction factors and dissatisfaction factors. The two types of features are known as hygiene factors. Some of the satisfaction factors that the healthcare sector can embark on to improve the performance of the nurses in raise salary, offer a good working environment, offer responsibility to the nurses, allow their advancement, and allow autonomy in their work. The Data Tools That Will Be Most Appropriate in This Approach The data tools that will be most appropriate in this approach include interviewing and focus groups. The unstructured interviews will be conducted. In this form of meetings, the participants will be asked various questions, and their response will be written. The research will target about 200 nurses from different hospitals and 500 patients in different regions. The interview will take approximately 5 minutes per participants. Secondly, the focus groups will be used. The focus group will incorporate various nurses there they will be asked to discuss the issues related with nurse personnel shortage. Also, the focus group can be used to describe multiple strategies that can be used to improve the nurses' performance. Also, the discussion will be recorded carefully. Conclusion 5 WEEK 4 QUALITATIVE RESEARCH It's important to find the right approaches which can be applied to address the shortage of nurse practitioners and improve the workability of the available nurses. The phenomenology approach as essential is construction a theoretical framework regarding the lack of the nurses. The theory can be applied to improve the performance of the nurses and thus ensuring there is quality healthcare. References Kutney-Lee, A., Stimpfel, A. W., Sloane, D. M., Cimiotti, J. P., Quinn, L.

Sudbury, MA: Jones & Bartlett Publishers Running head: DEVELOPING AN INTERVIEW GUIDE AN INTERVIEW GUIDE Tony Pinedo Walden University Step 2 1 AN INTERVIEW GUIDE 2 Interview Guide There exists inadequate research on the modalities necessary when looking at the recruitment process for individuals to be engaged in interviews. Indications show that there should be empirical research to ensure that people understand some of the pertinent issues such as how to deal with multicultural settings. However, when looking at the factors influencing the recruitment process for interviews in research, the following: available infrastructure and support resources, the characteristics of the recruiter, desired traits of the interviewees and the nature of the research process (Patton, 2015). When one looks at these aspects, they have a direct impact on whether the interview process can meet its overall goal or not. Having established the guiding principles in the recruitment process, the following shows the interview guide one would utilize in seeking to identify the people who will be used for research in the process. Brief Description It all starts with establishing a clear aspect through which one has all the goals of the research. In this case, one requires to have a clarity of purpose on what is required in the overall research, and how the knowledge required is applicable in the long-term. The nature of the research forms the foundation on the suitability of the interviewees. Therefore, a demonstration of the research goals and the knowledge which the researcher seeks to identify will be integral in having a trend on the type of researchers required. Secondly, the identification process which establishes the type of people who can generate the knowledge necessary for the research. In this case, one gives a justification on why a person should be given preference in the research process while overlooking others. After identifying potential interviewees, it is necessary that the AN INTERVIEW GUIDE 3 recruiter considers the people based on merit and their ability to offer significant knowledge towards the research goals. After the identification of the potential interviews, one then sends out an invitation detailing the research, the available resources and the timeline of conducting the research. In this case, it would be vital to try and have an argument towards persuasion, and some aspects such as informed consent and confidentiality would go a long way in ensuring that the people understand that any concerns on information such as violation of their privacy. One should send excessive invitations with an expectation that some prospective interviewees will turn down the invitation. However, in the invitation, one should also be clear to all those invited that the researcher holds the final power on who qualifies, in case there is a need to reduce the number of respondents. Summative of the interview guide One needs to understand the overall research goals and the purpose which the research will seek to serve at the end of the interview process. in this case, having clarity on the nature of the research, the theoretical inclinations and resources would be vital in determining how the interview process pans out. Additionally, one then focuses on the recruitment process which has been explained above, and sends the invitations to the people who will be used as the research sample, and provide information on different issues. Lastly, the informed consent which validates that the participants in the research have read and understood the research process in a language that they know. Additionally, the people understand the risks and terms of the research and voluntarily agree to these terms without any coercion. With this, one then goes ahead and starts the interview process.

Running head: HAND CODING VERSUS QUALITATIVE DATA ANALYSIS SOFTWARE 1 Hand Coding Versus Qualitative Data Analysis Software Tony Pinedo Walden University HAND CODING VERSUS QUALITATIVE DATA ANALYSIS SOFTWARE 2 Hands-On: Experience in Coding using Excel and Word Qualitative analysis is essential considering that it requires a strong focus on text-based analysis. There is a strong focus on the Qualitative Analysis Software which helps in facilitating analysis of the qualitative data based on the underlying research objectives. Therefore there are different factors which need to be considered in ensuring that the QDA Software selected is appropriate. There is a need to understand essential aspects including the research objective. The research objective help in organizing data as well as the methodology which help attain better results because it is possible to identify specific methods which can be included in the analysis to achieve the desired outcomes. The coding in both excel and word has different outcomes especially evaluating the ease of use and the ability to integrate necessary changes which can be essential in attaining better results. Coding of data is a crucial procedure considering that the analysis procedure is defined based on the codes. Thus it is vital to ensure that the coding is efficient. My experience in coding using both excel and the word was different despite knowing precisely what was needed based on the objective. However, an important consideration that I learned in this experience is that research outcomes validity and reliability are majorly based on the analytical tool which provides focus on a different type of data while also taking into focus a strong focus on essential processes which help attain better outcomes. I found coding in excel is more comfortable because of the excel structure which made it possible to organize the data successfully. Identifying a better structure in coding is crucial since it helps define critical processes which help develop better codes for analysis. However, the major challenge that I faced when coding using excel is that it was difficult for me to organize and categorize data effectively. There is data that is repetitive where different HAND CODING VERSUS QUALITATIVE DATA ANALYSIS SOFTWARE 3 participants have a similar understanding makes it difficult to identify is a single approach that would help in ensuring better coding. Coding in word was a challenging experience for me especially because I had not learned on the different ways available to code in word. However, organizing text data in word was easy considering that it provided a strong emphasis on better development. Text data is highly diverse which means that different approaches can be regarded as in attaining better coding. However, I learned a lot of essential aspects on qualitative data analysis where I can identify and utilize different approaches that have been considered in the analysis based on the underlying research objective which is crucial in attaining better research outcomes. The process of coding has evolved successfully through continuous practice which helps integrate essential concepts which can help define a better research process involving qualitative data. Research: Comparative of two Qualitative analysis software The choice of analysis software is vital in the analysis because a researcher must choose software that they can use based on the underlying research objective. High level of planning and organization is essential in taking into consideration such concepts which help attain improved results. Analyzing qualitative data is complex considering that there are no standard procedures which are evaluated in determining the accuracy of results. As a researcher, I understand that there are different concepts that I need to consider in attaining improved results. There are different Qualitative data analysis software which provides a strong background under which conducting successful research results is guaranteed. Different QDA software focuses on various aspects of analysis which mean that there is a need to identify a research objective within research to help ensure a successful choice. Therefore the software that I will evaluate includes NVivo and Dedoose. These software are useful in analyzing qualitative data and are employed across different platforms. NVivo is a HAND CODING VERSUS QUALITATIVE DATA ANALYSIS SOFTWARE 4 desktop based qualitative analytical tool that is has a more graphical user interface which enhances the ease of use. The Dedoose software is a web-based qualitative analytical software. Both software operates on a paid business model which requires subscription and continuous updates although both have a 30 day trial period (Boston University.,n.d.). The choice of software is dependent on the ability to use as well as better documentation which is crucial and help integrate essential aspects which can help in facilitating data analysis. These softwares operate only on the Windows operating system. The import and export functionality is critical to defining essential changes which need to be evaluated and help in attaining better outcomes. Both tools are compatible with excel, word and CSV formats which increase their diversity and ability to operate across different platforms (Predictive Analysis Today, 2016). I chose this qualitative data analysis software due to their ease of use and multiple functionalities which are essential when dealing with text-based data. Qualitative data is crucial and challenging to organize which require more efficient software that can be effectively engaged to attain improved outcomes. These features are essential in the choice of software to use when utilizing qualitative data. However, there is a need for a high level of practice to conduct dynamic analysis.
